I can't say I never win anything...

I don't mean to brag....but I have won over 2,000,000 pounds sterling in the UK lottery, received a very generous grant of 850,000 from OXFAM and I won some crazy ridiculous amount in the Swiss Lottery. What am I going to do with my new found wealth you might ask????? For starters I will definitely host that girl who is being terrorized by her evil step father (I think she was supposed to be from Mali?) or maybe I will help one of the millions of poor souls who has nothing better to do than clog my email with junk!!!

I HATE junk mail, more specifically I really detest scam emails...However, Justin found this awesome web page where some crazy guy scams the scammers - he calls it scambaiting!! The good stuff is in the Letters Archive! I have attached the link below...

Trip to Washington

We flew to Washington the day that Justin was done with the Bar Exam!! NO MORE STUDYING!! I am so excited! Now we just have to wait until September for the results.

The next day was Justin's Birthday! Honey you are old!! We spent the day relaxing...it was awesome! Thanks Coldstone for another amazing cake!


OLD MAN!

The next day we went canoeing in Seattle on some lake...I can't remember what it was called. It was beautiful when we weren't fighting waves from the millions of boats that were there that day. The Blue Angels were practicing for their show and you could see them from the lake.

Cheryl (Justin's mom) and Justin

That night we went to a Mariner's game with the Williams family (Angela's in-laws) and had a great time even though the Mariner's got spanked...it was a little bit sad. (So sad that we left before the game was over...they only scored after we left...sad.) But we had a great time and the nachos were super TASTY!

Jess and Justin at the game!

Angela and Melissa

Saturday we went to the Oregon coast! It was a pretty nice day - still gray and not too cold. We built sandcastles, played in the water (a little), flew kites, had a very tasty picnic, played frisbee, soccer and we all got really sandy.

Cheryl and Justin on the beach (my husband is not wearing a sweatshirt...and is in shorts...we were all in pants and coats! He is a polar bear!)


On Monday we drove to Mt. Rainer and did a little hike. It was a beautiful day and the area is georgeous!! It was sooo beautiful!

We also spent a few days relaxing and doing a little bit of shopping. We had a great time! Thanks Cheryl, Jerry, Melissa, Angela, Jon and Logan Man! It was great to see you guys! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for driving us to the airport! You ROCK!

Jared to the MTC

My brother left for the MTC on July 23rd...I had to be there!! So the day after we got home from our weekend trip to see my family, I left again...with Dexter. It was nice to see Jared again...see him in a suit...all grown up like...he's so cute!

Jen, Elder and I

The Fam

Slurping broccoli cheese soup through a straw...classic. (We had lunch at the Brick Oven before we went to the MTC.)

That weekend my Mom, Dad and brothers when on a camping trip and my sister had to stay home because of her work schedule (convenient huh??) so I stayed with her so the Boogey Monster wouldn't get her. She made me dinner!! How nice huh? Poppy Seed Chicken.

Salad, Poppy Seed Chicken and Jen (you guys are so cute together!!)

A VERY IMPORTANT NOTE TO MY DAD: I do not know where you got this hat...but I think that it might have to meet an unfortunate end...very unfortunate....
